As much as teaching might not be one of your calling/ interest, wont it
be better for us to see it as an avenue to give back to the society.

Also remember, you cant give what you dont have. Practice makes
perfection.... The time to start preparing for that is now if you have
not being doing that already.

Federal government or who are to be blamed for this arrangement?

Giv back to wich society??
Nigeria??
SMH
Abeg,
Nigeria is NOT worth giving back to,
Period.
Jus prepare my alawee at the end of the month nd we r kool.

Give back some knowledge to kids that need it, Nigeria doesn't appreciate you but they students will. And in some cases, the gifts(foods, fruits, cards, cash, etc) yu'll be giving during ur stay will make ur life much more comfortable + the fulfilment.. kai,
Some of my friends dat didn't like the teaching idea are currently saying it's one of the best feeling they've got knowing they are valued...

Ik, wait till yu get there.. We'll hear ur story

If you don't serve your father land...who will?

I cooked for my enemies with DETTOL....if i dont take care of them,who will

Funny...but you must make sure you don't mistakenly taste that food while cooking or else you might end up doing them a favour by killing yourself.

You'll be given a white elastic shorts...2 white shirts, 2 white shorts...there are no belt loops...just elastic.

You will be expected to wear it throughout your 3weeks in camp except on sundays.

And of course, you can bring white shorts for yourself...the ones they would give you in camp are of poor quality, so carry as much whites as possible when coming since that's what you'll be wearing throughout your stay.

I heard someone here mention the use of khaki.. I was actually planing to wear that instead.

Also try as much as possible to snap passport photographs now...you're going to be needing lots of them in camp.

And if go without any, the photographers in mammy market are going to take advantage of you by charging you more because they know you need them desperately.

So use this period to get enough passports and other necessary things.

outrage: I heard someone here mention the use of khaki.. I was actually planing to wear that instead.

The kahki is mainly for parade...your white shorts and white round neck are what you'll be putting on most of the time.

But I can choose to where the khaki all the time right?

outrage: But I can choose to where the khaki all the time right?

Bro the major out fit is white and white...when the time for putting on kahi comes, you'll change to it along with your fellow corpers.

If you're known to be a bad boy there, always disobeying the rules, the soldiers might make an example outta you...so just stick to whatever they ask you to do, to wear...etc.

Pls what are d other neccessary things

Duduconfirm:
Pls what are d other neccessary things

Just the regular things you would need...

Things like you luggages, mosquito nets, bed sheet (most mattress in camps are very dusty and can give you running nose if you sleep on it) and they're given on first come first serve basis. So if you come late, you're likely to sleep on a lice infested mattress.

You can also come with mosquito sprays...most of your lectures and activities would be under trees, and very close to bushes...in most cases you're likely to get bitten by insects, mosquitoes...etc. So it would be wise to come armed and prepared.

Also come with bed sheets pillow case and buckets (you can buy this in mammy market)

Padlock and chain for chainning your luggage to your bed, so it won't get stolen.

Waist pouch...where you can keep your phone, money Id card...etc. You must make sure that it doesn't leave your waist.

Bath pack...medicated soap, cream, dettol, tooth brush, tooth paste...

If I remember more, I'll post them here.

Please guys where do you think is the best place to serve? I had Enugu in mind but i don't know what the camp looks like..i really wouldn't mind suggestions as i've been mobilized for batch A and still confused as to where to work my posting to. Suggestions please

You guys are really doing a good job here.
Everyday I learn new things from this thread.
I can't afford to be a Novice @ the camp.
More grease to your Elbow.

No camp asks you for school I.d card.

What they ask for is your call-up letter.

Some camps go as far as taking your call-up letter for UV Mercury Light verification to test the authentication of it.

You won't be needing your school I.d card in camp.

Tnx alot @Crazyman. Bt do u know if 3-quarter shorts re allowed?

God bless you for this post. I'm 80% for teaching. There's no greater reward than impacting in a man and see him become something in life. This is a chance to do that for me cos I don't intend taking teaching as a full term career. God bless us all and God bless Nigeria.

I gotta commend Crazyman though. You're a blessing to this thread..yeah and everyone that has been consistent to this course. Dunno if we could keep this thread alive and maybe change the title when we start service. Will be fun to share our exploits and challenges on the same thread we shared our dreams. It's just a thought though. Bless.

OC cool: Tnx alot @Crazyman. Bt do u know if 3-quarter shorts re allowed?

As far as its shorts, you're good to go.
